what vid card does the second pc have?
I'd say that the cpu in the 1st pc is better, but they are pretty close.

 

[Archangel112]

256Mb Sapphire Radeon X1600Pro PCI-E(x16) 12Pipes 800MHz GDDR2 500MHz GPU D-Sub/DVI-I/HDTV

256Mb Sapphire Radeon X1600Pro PCI-E(x16) 12Pipes 800MHz GDDR2 500MHz GPU D-Sub/DVI-I/HDTV

that is alot better than the x300.
Or will this vid card be included in both of the computers?

Hopefully both

Something tells me your buying a pre-built system... the CPU in the first computer is MUCH better... but the video card in the 2nd is a lot better than the first one... personally, i'd just go get custom built, that way you get the best of both worlds.

I am im making my own these aren't actual computers just yet, just the parts im thinking of buying, I wanted to know what people thought, My budget is £500

Hopefully both

if u can get it for both then go with the amd system. If not then definitely the intel one, since the vid card is so important in gaming.
